Too late! The local Blockbuster Music (I only shop there for the $10 Criterion Collection laserdiscs :-) just started a big new "Dance" section with Underworld and Black Dog right in there with Los Del Body-Of-Water and a half-million "Hot Rave '97" compilations. (Personally, I think it's wonderful that they carry the stuff at all, no matter where they shelve it.) -- ::: Lazlo (lazlo@swcp.com; http://www.swcp.com/lazlo)
